I says "reasonable reward" is because this tutorial is not about how to get rich fast or start earning fast money with minimum amount of effort. You need to work your way to earn your money.
Before I start explaining how to make money online the right way . Let me explain what kind of common traps and scams services exist out there.

Firefox is one of the best internet browser allow users to browse the web quickly and securely. It come with a google toolbar that block annoying pop-ups.

This is the second method I was talking about in the introduction. Today’s hottest Internet businesses are all about the power of social networks. Companies like MySpace, Facebook, and YouTube have become worth billions because businesses have realized that these social networks are generating huge advertising and marketing opportunities. Agloco is one of the social networks oriented service, the only different is if you help them build up their social networks by simply introduce you families, friends or your blog's visitor to join the community, you will get pay and earn Agloco's share!

Agloco pay you and allocate share monthly to you according to the total hours you had your Agloco toolbar open. However, the maximum hours you may earn per month is 5 hours currently. There is another way to increase the hours by simply referring more people to join Agloco, you will earn hours while those people you referred are using Agloco toolbar. After installation of Agloco toolbar, you will receive a referral link from your account page, you can use the link to refer more people to join under you. You may find out more on the Agloco website.
This is the third method I was talking about. There are 2 main reason I recommend you to apply this free service.
Although $0.0001USD per 15 second is really too little, the secret is you may introduce more people e.g. family, friends or your blog's visitor to join the services, while they(and people referred under them) earn money by browsing internet, you earn money too, see the power now?

After you got your blog up and running, you need a way for people to found you from internet search engine. Use google webmaster tool to ask the google search engine to index your blogs.
This step do not require you to do it immediately. Just make sure your blogs are properly indexed by google search engine (which sometime can took a month for them to index, I recommend you bookmark this tutorial and come back later when you ready), and make sure there are no adult, gambling or violent related content in your blogs.
After you sure everything is ready, you can apply google adsense! Which is the best part of this tutorial. Here is how it work, Google find advertiser for you, all you need to do is get a piece of Javascript code from Google and place it into the blogs where you want the advertising appear. No need to worry about what kind of advertisement to place on your blogs, because once you got your Javascript in place, Google will figure out the best advertisement and allocate it for you.
